Linky

My locost has a slush box so this one is not unique

I have seen another auto locost type at a show. Im sure i read somewhere about a disabled mk aswell. Think it was a different colour to that one aswell so maybe another one???

lmfao!

if you've seen that one, you'll know why i'm laughing.

i guess they've not seen many other cars of the marque. just hope its rarity doesn't make it worth too much.

I could do with that car - i regularly loose the use of my legs every saturday night!!!


This si an excellent opportunity for a disabled person to get into se7ens. I hope it finds a good home.

I'm building an auto as well, although it's going a lot slower than I'd hoped (lack of progress, that is!).
Maybe this year
I collected the kit in 2003, at which point it was unique.

Why auto?


MautoK - 26/2/07 at 01:24 PM

The main reason is that the donor was auto
With the MK being around half of the weight of the Ford I'm hoping that the sogginess of the original will largely be eliminated.
